the title says it all and yes earth-bag earthship, not sure if you are aware of what that is exactly, but it is a combination of earthbag building with earthship building, does that sound confusing and complicated not at all, I have spent long hrs figuring this out and trying to design a house that will merge the two building forms together,
to start off I will be using 14" X 26" sand bags to create the earthbag walls part of the house, now normally the bags would be filled and stacked long ways to get roughly a 14 ish inch wall however I am going against the norm and will be stacking the bags short ways where I will be getting a 24 ish inch wall ( yes I will try to be uniform and get as close to 24" as possible) but it can be and exact size with using sand bags and dirt, I will have rebar and a spiked plywood ( a probably 10" piece of plywood with 16 penny nails hammered thru both sides) holding the sand bags levels together and firm. with the back wall roughly 8' and the front wall 12' tall.
ok this is getting a little long in the tooth so I think I will make this part 1. join in (probably) tomorrow for part 2
